Thoughts on the middle passages.

Well, things aren't so bad here that  I'm gonna close the site because of dwindling memberships. But the memberships have lost about a third of where I started from. Since the month I opened it there has been no growth.

 I'm looking for an uptick in membership as a signal that things are more as they  should be on the site and then I'll move more aggressively toward advertising than I have. Sooner or later I'll get it right and I'll hang on until I do.

Obviously output hasn't been what I had hoped it would be. It's not awful, but not what I want either.

I should be participating on forums soon also. I would benefit from talking to others to learn more about the business and audience that's out there.

As to style and content...what I'm doing clearly isn't keeping most people going with me. Partly is that I've had to rely on commissioned stories that others have taken me in a direction that I wouldn't have gone in if left to my own druthers, no offense to my commissioners. But people are familiar with a certain tone and content from me that inevitably gets altered in the collaboration process.

As to style I feel some more excitement in the pictures and people is called for. I'm learning more about getting more out of a composition right now and things could stand some improvement in that direction.

The females need to be more in peril and dismayed and deserving of a little mistreatment, and maybe a bit less capable in some cases, though I wont abandon the capable woman angle altogether. I still want to do my share of Sector 13 style horror and adventure.

Also I think a more cartoony approach is called for in some stories especially in the ISM. Too realistic can be an issue in the wrong place I think. I'm thinking of Mitch Byrd and Art Adams as influences here, btw.

Oh, and also, draw bigger tits. I hear this a lot these days. I gotcha, though I'll depart from that from time to time. Flat chested girls ring my bell too, boy.

And output seems to matter a lot. I'll try to figure out how to do more while I work what's turned into my virtual 'day job' editing stories, and drawing Sector 13 over at Monsterbabes.

This is what I'm thinking. Chime in if you have any thoughts of your own to add.

Amen-Ra, the Succubus

Begins with the prologue: The Testimony of Daniel Uruk. Cover and page one. Pages two and three to follow tomorrow and Wednesday.
Beware!

Inspired by just about any Hammer film from the sixties.


It's coming it's coming...

Look for Succubus going up today or tomorrow. It'll be the first three pages plus a cover. More work than I expected. Orgy, don'tcha know?

Post number 300!

GGGB page 20 will be delivered over the weekend. And we will continue on from there! I expect the story itself will go on another five pages and then we're onto another ISM tale, the ISM Begins! Yeah, it's his origin story, who he is and all that shhhtuf. Also also appearing concurrently with all the ISM goofiness will be  the Succubus and more of The Code very soon. Also I'm still going strong on Sector 13 over at Monsterbabes!

I think the page below is an old repost...lost track. From a story for Catfight Central. The librarians have it out! Wow. That's when I drew 'em BIG!

Page 19 of GGGB with the ISM

Don't worry folks. ISM will soon take a hand...and a few other things...in a few short pages. And then following this long tale, on it's very heels, will be told the legendary tale, the Invisible Sex Maniac Begins!

I'll be dropping a few pages of other stories in here and there as I go along too. I know it's a bit unusual to meander like that, but it fits the way my head is put together and the result will be better...I think. Besides...why not have a few surprises along the path of life? Hm?

Page 16 of Good Girls Gone Bad starring the ISM


Page 16 is up in the members section under the Good Girls Gone Bad label. This week I'll be trying out daily posts again. I'm trying to figure out if it's best practice to have something for you guys everyday even if it's at least a sketch, if not a story page. It might be nicer to have reason to come by the site every day, y'know? 

 As long as it doesn't drive me crazy(er)!

For some dang reason the site has been glitchy for some folks, me included. Trying to get to the bottom of it. It's usually a "you didn't hold yer mouth right when ya pushed the button!" sorta thing.
